GadlingTV's Travel Talk - Thailand Part 8: Scooters & Coconuts
Gadling TV's Travel Talk, episode 38 – Click above to watch video after the jump
In the first half of Travel Talk's grand Thai expedition, we've tamed elephants, explored Bangkok's temples, eaten scorpions, taken in a Muay Thai match, and witnessed a train running directly through a bustling market. Now, we're taking you to explore a lesser known province of Thailand for a closer look at the culture and traditions of rural Thai life.
Situated near the border of Myanmar, Sangkhlaburi is a great destination for those looking for alternative to Chiang Mai or the beaches of Koh Samui. Ever since our Vespa adventure in Rome, we've been anxious to get back on the open road; so we rented scooters and explored the rest of Sangkhlaburi. We'll take you to the longest wooden bridge in Thailand and show you what Thai life is like down on the farm.

Just so we're clear, one of you two is riding double on one of those scooters, right?

Just so we're clear, if my mother ever asks- "Yes."
That being said... No. It was as unsafe as you might imagine- flying helmetless on sandy roads while filming with one hand. Just so you know what we go through to make some TT.

I cannot condone the eccentric McCain's diabolically crytpic plan to reinstate an impotent, homogenous senate...

So amazing. I've got to try out a scooter rental.

Anyone else having the "this doesnt appear to be a valid podcast URL" in iTunes (after subscribing either manually or through iTunes store) ? Maybe the RSS is malformed or something. Firefox's preview of the feed comes up with it as blank as well, but when I look at source I see the links and descriptions-- and googlereader seems to see it OK. Looks like iTunes is rejecting it for some reason.
I'd really like to catch up on the show.
